[continued from previous message]   
      
   Thine example, that my resemblance to Thee may make me worthy of Thy   
   love, and cause me to find grace in the sight of Thy heavenly Father,   
   who loves us only in proportion as we resemble Thee. Help me then to   
   become imbued with Thy sentiments and conformed to Thine inclinations.   
   Grant that, after Thy example, I may become meek, humble, patient,   
   charitable, and submissive in all things to Thy Father’s will. I hope   
   that, presenting myself to Him in and by Thee, I shall not be   
   rejected, and that the attachment which I desire to have for Thee may   
   secure Thy love for me, and my ultimate salvation. Amen.
